After 911 the US
Immigration Service has increased vigilance over illegal trips due to possible
harboring of terrorists in Cuba. With the cooperation of the Mexican authorities
popular airports like Cancun and Mexico city have have been staked out and
severe fines given to US national returning from illegal trips to Cuba, which
can be less expensive. Foreign nationals have have had their alien visas (green
cards revoked)

This is a legal trip
approved by the State Department in Washington and the Cuban government. They
mandate top notch accommodations for such legal trips which raises the price
compared to the risky cut-rate tours out of Mexico. This tour is an incredible value and we are proud
to support it.
